Lexan interior PORSCHE 908/3

The lexan interior that the NSR Porsche 908/3 deserves

The NSR1510 is the lexan interior specifically designed for the NSR Porsche 908/3 body in 1/32 scale. Made from lexan, the same lightweight and durable material used for competition bodies, this interior provides the level of visual detail that distinguishes a well-finished car from a partially prepared one.

Function and performance

Beyond aesthetics, a lexan interior serves a practical function: it completes the body, providing visual coherence when viewing the car from any angle, which is particularly relevant in exhibitions, hobby photography, or simply on the club track where presentation also matters.

Lexan is a material that combines lightness and rigidity. It does not add significant mass to the overall car, so its installation does not penalise track performance or alter the chassis balance.

Compatibility

This interior is designed to fit precisely into the NSR Porsche 908/3 body. If you have a unit of this body and want to give it a more refined finish—whether for collection, diorama, or track use—the NSR1510 is the specific part for that.

Assembly and preparation

As it is a raw lexan piece or in its original NSR presentation, it can be painted with plastic-compatible paints such as those from Tamiya or Vallejo to recreate the cockpit with maximum detail: seat, belts, dashboard… Lexan accepts paint well when applied from the inside (a common technique in slot bodies), which allows for the finish to be protected behind the glass.

• Clean the piece before painting to remove any release agent or dust.
• If using an airbrush, fine dilutions in several layers provide the best result on lexan.
• For a quicker finish, Tamiya spray paints adhere well to this surface.

The Porsche 908/3: a legendary prototype

The Porsche 908/3 is one of the most iconic prototypes in motorsport history. Developed in the early 1970s to compete on mountain circuits like Targa Florio and Nürburgring, it stood out for its extremely lightweight and aerodynamic design, with an open spyder-type body. Its six-cylinder boxer engine and reliability made it a winning tool in the hands of drivers like Pedro Rodríguez, Jo Siffert, or Brian Redman. NSR has managed to capture that spirit in its slot replica, and this interior is the ideal complement to honour that legacy.

Frequently asked questions

Is this interior compatible with all versions of the NSR Porsche 908/3?

It is designed for the NSR Porsche 908/3 body. If you have questions about a specific version of the body (special decoration, limited edition…), please consult us before placing your order.

Does the interior come painted or unpainted?

The available information does not specify whether it includes factory paint. The usual practice for this type of NSR piece is that they come unpainted, ready for customization. If you need confirmation, feel free to contact us.

Does it affect the weight of the car and its performance on track?

Lexan is a very lightweight material, so the impact on the total weight of the car is minimal and should not appreciably alter track performance.

Can I paint it with any model paint?

Yes. Acrylic paints from Vallejo or Tamiya work well on lexan. If you paint it from the inside of the piece (a classic technique in slot), the finish will be protected and have greater visual depth.

Do I need any special tools to assemble it?

No. The assembly is straightforward and is done with the fittings specific to the NSR body. No specific tools are required beyond the usual ones in the slot hobby.
